Nope, it could be worse though. In Denmark and Norway there were in 1984 only a few stations. With luck you had cable and acces to some foreign stations. But 6 or 7 stations was already a lot.
 
I found more to watch above than on a typical night now :)

Austin City limits on PBS
Habs game on SRC (dont need to know the language to watch hockey)
All in the Family, Jefferson's and Girls B-Ball on KXJB
HNIC on CBC
UND hockey on WDAZ
AWA wrestling and cartoons on CKND
Little House and Diffrent Strokes on NBC
 
WWF called their Canadian programming "Maple Leaf Wrestling" but that was shown in Toronto (actually CHCH Hamilton)

Unknown what Titan Wrestling was from.


The WWF's corporate name in 1984 was Titan Sports Inc. It had a wrestling talk show on USA Network called Tuesday Night Titans, but never used "Titan" in any of the titles of its other shows -- Championship, All-Star, Wrestling Challenge, Superstars of Wrestling, All-American Wrestling, Monday Night Wrestling, etc. Maybe one of those weekly shows was packaged differently for the central and western Canadian markets.
